Probably take years before they pay off the full price. In other words, low income hipsters who willing to have debts in order to be trendy. The rich still prefer to use iphones anyway.

Looks like you're the one who's high here. Then tell me why the lumia 950 and 950XL have prices that are falling almost every couple of weeks? Because only a few people deem those devices worthy to purchase!

It's been a success. I personally know a lot of people who sold their iPhones and Galaxy S/Note's to get the PRIV and they love it. I bought the PRIV too. I love it. I do wish they put the Snapdragon 810 in it though.

Here the iPhone 6s is 700 and the Priv is 720. India has the iPhone 6s at around 955 so it's still close to what the Priv is. I never said they were cheap, but it's far from something only the rich and wealthy can afford. Do you know people with the iPhone 6s? are all of them rich and wealthy?

Not talking about just the Canadian pricing which translate to around $600. Other part of the world like India gets a steep price of $932 to buy BB Priv. Blackberry is overpricing it. Some other country gets by around $830 for the Priv. Still think its cheap? Btw, definition of upper mid class varies for each country. What you consider poor can be consider as rich in some place else.

Billy B, 20 Feb 2016Obviously, you haven't tried the Priv.We said nice because we like it. It is indeed a very fine smartphone that we wish we could afford but unfortunately it is extremely unaffordable even for upper mid class income people. For a great phone with great specs that most people wish they can have, it is left as a dream. Gsmarena had made a poll before and many voted it as 'HOT'. Only the rich and wealthy can buy this thing. Rather buy a laptop with that CAD899 pricing.

Billy B, 20 Feb 2016Obviously, you haven't tried the Priv.I have tried it for a day and i can tell you that isn't worth it.
Its way overpriced than it really worths. No wonder why people criticize it.
A product can be called as good only if it has a balance ratio in both product and price.
